Sonos Gets A Little More Affordable With ZonePlayer S5 Wireless Speaker
Sonos’ wireless home audio system is great for convenient, hiss-free streaming, but it’s pretty pricey. The S5 changes that (a little), by incorporating a receiver and speaker into one unit?compared to the $350 ZP90 which requires separate powered-speakers.
The ZonePlayer S5 will be $400 on November 10, and gives you an all-in-one option to extend your Sonos music network into a new room. It looks a little like the Bose SoundLink on the outside, and inside has a 5-driver speaker system consisting of two tweeters, two 3-inch mids, and a 3.5-inch sub.
You can control the S5 using the Sonos CR200 touchscreen controller, or via free apps for the iPhone/iPod touch and Mac or PC
